Story Behind this Recipe

I had planned to use some leftover cooked rice to make rice croquettes, but somewhere during the process I realized my rice was too wet to work with, so I changed plans and added watercress to make a rice salad. I thought it would go well with my main dish, chicken piccata. The flavors combined really well with the seasonings.

Helpful Hints

The flavour of the dish will change considerably depending on the variety and ripeness of your tomato. I think an acidic and savoury tomato is better than sweet ones. The dish is best once it has cooled, and the flavours have melded. The kombu garlic dressing can be used in many dishes, so make some to keep on hand.
